from Dispatches: The Podcast of the Journal of the American Revolution

This week our guest is author and JAR contributor Jim Piecuch. In July 1778 an editorial was published in Britain that raised eyebrows when it suggested that the Crown raise a corps of female soldiers to fight in America. Though scoffed at in its day, this article would prove to be simply ahead of its time. For more information visit www.allthingsliberty.com.
